Go to your local ATM before coming to TFcon

[Super_Megatron]

Just a quick reminder, over a thousand people will be at TFcon Saturday, most of them will be spending lots of money in the dealer room. Many of them will not be bringing enough money and will be making a trek to the hotel ATM and will empty out the hotel ATM. Don't be part of the problem, take out cash before you get to the hotel! :D

[zuffyprime]

I cannot agree more with the above message.
Don't be disappointed, go to the atm before!
thx for the public service announcement supermegs,
see ya at the show guys:D

[General Tekno]

Yes - I'll be going beforehand.

Then I'll go the Friday night, and Saturday morning. I'm wary about carrying as much cash as I'll need on my flight, especially since most will get spent quickly.

[Protoman]

Protip: Instead of going to your ATM, go INTO your bank itself before the con this weekend. Most ATMs only give a max 400-500 bucks a day while inside you have no limit at an ACTUAL teller.

BRING MORE MONEY.

[Stormrave]

Here's another hint...

If you're worried about carrying a lot of money in a wallet in your pants pocket, or in a purse...

I went to a travel store and bought a pouch that hangs around my neck and under my shirt. Unless you're wearing a tight shirt, nobody will be able to see you have this pouch, so you won't look goofy.

I feel a lot safer keeping cash in there, because even if someone steals my wallet or I forget my purse on the bus, my money is physically attached to me. There's almost no chance of it being lost or stolen.

Fine, but if I reach into your shirt, I was "in it for the money".

[JLvatron]

Booo!!! Get off the stage! Get a haircut!

[Nightscrabbler]

I do need a haircut. I don't think I have enough time.

[GMfan]

Ditto :P

(Maybe tomorrow before the show...)

[Sureshot22]

damn dirty hippies :P

[GMfan]

CoH is the hippie :P my hair is about 2 inches long on top which is 1 inch more then I want at this time.

[Stormrave]

LOL!

And if I slap you, it's self defense!

*Anybody getting smart ideas about adding a tub of pudding to this scenario can just stop it right now*

[Black Cat]

What about jello? :P

[Paradigm-Shift Prime]

Which flavour?

And yeah, it does good to think to not think like everyone else thinks (which is not thinking, or at least saying they'll only spend so much when they know they'll end up spending more :D).

Hey, I'm not a hippie any more! :p Now wheres my salad and my tea... Damn!

[Robimus]

I heard that Code of Honor and GMFan are giing low interest loans to anyone who runs short of funds this year......:p

[GMfan]

I hear Robimus is up to nonsense and tomfoolery :P

[Nyghtwynd]

Well, today's plan is:
GO to work (9-3)
Go to bank after, got monies.
GO to the hotel, get pizza =D
Mingle, home, sleep.
It's all good =3

[Black Cat]

I hear Robimus is up to nonsense and tomfoolery :P

I'm more likely to believe Robimus. If only because it means there's money. :p

[Mike]

I had a few hundred bucks saved up, but then I bought an Xbox 360, now I only have like a $100 to buy stuff. Maybe I can still get one or two encore reissues

[Stormrave]

Mike: $100 is my usual con budget, but depending on how expensive your tastes are you can get a lot of good stuff for that.

I've had some very good deals on loose toys, and came home with toys, reprolabels, art, patches, etc. I've also had some good trades which stretched the $ even further.
